He's still younger than Pitta was when he came into the league. Lots of room to grow.

Makes sense. His cap hit for this year was 4.5 mil.

Malcolm Smith is a solid pick for MVP. 5 tackles, a pick six and a fumble recovery. It's nice to see it go to someone who isn't a QB.

Shame we didn't decide to bring Shanahan on board, but I guess he's going to shoot for an OC position.

Not to mention this is the first time we've had anything close to a confirmation. Until now it's just been people being eliminated from consideration and being told that they would have an announcement soon. Now suddenly, we have a front runner who has a plan to bring in lots of talented coaches.

PFT's usually full of it, but if those Biscotti quotes are legit, you have to wonder just how involved he is in the move.

I'm liking this new Harbs. Playing aggressive on and off the field is how you build a team that wins.

Hoping for the Seahawks to absolutely demolish the Broncos.

I'm studying at the University of Pittsburgh. I hear it occasionally for hanging a Ravens flag in my room, but I haven't worked up the balls to wear my jersey outside of my dorm, so I don't know how the rest of the area would react.

I disagree with a few of the players on there being considered better than Torrey, but I agree with your overall point. There was way too much talk before the season started about how Torrey had finally become a #1 receiver, then we saw the same problems that have plagued him his past two seasons.

Kubiak's two trademarks have been the ZBS and a lack of in game changes to the gameplan. I second the Hue Jackson idea like I did last year.

Ed plans to retire at 37? Huh. Sounds familiar. Did any other Ravens retire at that age?

Sign him to a retirement contract and let him move on with his life.

It doesn't give teams enough time to heal and prepare. I can't remember the last TNF game that didn't result in important players getting injured. Not to mention it's NFLN only, so most people don't watch anyway.

No. Those jerseys need to stay in the past.

Replacing JJ with Upshaw is working out pretty well all things considered, and Redding has been injured all season long.

As much as I loved Boldin, this was a gold move for Ozzie. If he had waited till tomorrow, we'd still lose Boldin, but we'd get nothing in return and we'd still have dead cap space. Dealing him today gets us a pick and forces the Niners to pay Boldin's salary.

There was no way Doss was getting that ball. He was on the wrong side of his defender. That's either a catch for Boldin or an interception for whomever was covering Doss.

If he doesn't take a pay cut he'll probably end up a free agent.

I was poking fun at him saying they would be a good secondary. I agree completely that that's a receiving corps that I would love to see. Football is a business. I doubt the FO is willing to bet 7 million dollars on Cam holding Boldin back. The fact is that Cam's offenses were good. I think we can all agree that he was holding the offense from being great, but it isn't our money that gets lost if that isn't the case, and it isn't our job that's on the line if we aren't cautious. The front office looks at 2008- most of 2012 and sees a good offense. I want to see Boldin back in Baltimore next year as much as anyone else, and trying as hard as possible to bring him back is common sense. But if he insists on placing himself out of the FO's price range after saying that he isn't playing for money and wants to retire in Baltimore, then he's gone and he has no one to blame but himself. To be fair, he looked really good catching the ball during the preseason. That doesn't translate into being a good receiver, especially in the slot, but it's worth considering.

I don't know about that. I could see Torrey and Jacoby, but Anquan and Mason were never really fast enough to play CB or FS, though Q might have had something going at SS.

1. He has the third highest cap hit of the team, topped only by two players that are at the tops of their respective positions. 2. Taking a pay cut or getting a contract extension would help the team. 3. "I'm not playing for money." Why shouldn't Boldin take a pay cut? He played great in the playoffs, but we can't base every player's salary on a four game stretch. The FO has no idea why Boldin suddenly turned into a real #1 receiver for the playoffs, or whether that will last through another season and it would be foolish of them to pay him like one.

I used exactly what you quoted in your post. Why would you post the corrected version in a post about mistakes? My point was that the title may have been wrong in saying that the Ravens released Harrison(though it clearly only makes grammatical sense if a team other than the Ravens was the one releasing Harrison), the content is what matters and that is what's correct (with the exception of the NFC North bit.

To a 7.5 mill cap hit? Not a chance. Boldin is great, but he doesn't deserve the third largest cap hit on the team. If he won't take a pay cut, then the FO doesn't really have much choice.

From your source "The Pittsburgh Steelers announced Saturday that they released linebacker James Harrison, while Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Anquan Boldin might become a free agent after all." You're trying to hard.
